Thermistors are designed for conductive glue mounting.
Press Release Summary:
Available in 0603 case size, NCG18XH103 and NCG18WF104 have thermal constant of 3,380 and 4,200 K and resistance of 10 and 100 kW at 25°C, respectively. Operating at temperatures from -40 to +150°C, both models dissipate 1.0 mW/°C.
Original Press Release:
Industry's Only Conductive Glue Mountable Thermistor Developed by Murata
Hoofddorp, Netherlands: Selected parts from Murata's popular chip NTC thermistor range are now available in versions suitable for conductive glue mounting. The NCG18 series of conductive glue mountable thermistors is the industry's first. The parts feature exactly the same characteristics as Murata's widely used NCP18 series, meaning that when migrating to the new type, all the relevant circuit parameters can be maintained, saving design time and cost.
Conductive glue is a common method of mounting components in applications that demand reliability at high temperatures, particularly in automotive environments. It's also used in applications that cannot be subjected to the heat of the solder paste mounting process, such as LCD panels, organic EL and LED displays, and CCD devices, which are particularly sensitive to high temperatures.
There are initially two parts in the NCG18 series, both available in 0603 case size. The NCG18XH103 has a thermal constant of 3380K and a resistance of 10kW at 25°C, while the NCG18WF104 has a thermal constant of 4200K and a resistance of 100kW at 25°C. Both dissipate 1.0mW/°C and feature operating temperature of -40 to +150°C.
